Akademy-es 2022: Program and registration

2022-09-17 Thread José Millán Soto
Hi all,

On the 29th and 30th of September, just before Akademy, KDE España will
organize Akademy-es 2022 in an hybrid format (similar to Akademy 2022).

We have recently publish the program and opened the registration.
You can check the program here: https://kde-espana.org/akademy-es-2022/programa
You can register here: https://www.kde-espana.org/akademy-es2022/registro.php
Please note that the event will be in Spanish

Also note that if you want to reserve one of the Akademy-es T-Shirts, you
should register either today (Saturday 17) or tomorrow.

Also, please take into account that while the venue is in the same university 
campus that the Akademy venue, it will not be in the same building, so if you 
want to attend in person, please have a look at this URL about the venue 
location: https://www.kde-espana.org/akademy-es-2022/localizacion

¡Looking forward to see you in Akademy-es and Akademy!

Re: FOSDEM retrospective

2018-02-10 Thread José Millán Soto
Hi all,

During FOSDEM we also did ask some questions to the people who came to the 
booth based on the three goals we chose last year.
The questions were proposed by Lydia and were:
 - Which is the biggest usability issue you see in your use of KDE software?
 - Ever tried constributing to KDE? What were the biggest hurdles?
 - Do you see KDE as trustworthy when it comes to privacy? why?

Regarding the first question, the answers were as follows:
 - One person said that menu and panels were not intuitive. Tought that GNOME 
does that better. Example: It's too easy for an unexperienced user to remove a 
panel by mistake.
 - Too much things in the UI. UI seems overloaded.
 - Inconsistently.
 - Tought that design was a bit outdated.
 - Switching MB between 1000 and 1024.
 - A little too heavy, try to make it more modular.

Regarding the second question, all people asked no. Some people however said 
that they had reported bugs or gave money on our fundraiser (so I told them 
that then that's another way to contribute).
>From the people who gave reasons why they hadn't contribute, one didn't feel 
skilled enought; other said that he only knows Java, and other said that he 
didn't know where to look at in order to begin to contribute.

Regarding the privacy question, most people answered yes. Some people 
mentioned that they trust KDE becouse it's free software and so the code can 
be reviewed. One person said that he tought all free software takes privacy 
into account. Another person congratulated us on the good improvement on 
password management and gpg.
Two people who didn't anwser yes, the first said that it would depend on where 
she would download the software (example: would trust if it's installed from a 
Debian repository as she trusts Debian, but no if it comes from a random 
repository as doesn't have warranty that it's the same program that the one we 
had written).
Another person said that he things that KDE is not taking security seriously 
enough and we have some serious flaws (example: Xorg runs as root by SDDM).

I don't think that there were Indian sizes but they were fitted-cut sizes (I 
think all the straight-cut sizes have been sold in previous events).

Sunday sales:
Konqi t-shirts:
 - 2XL: 3
K-Logo T-Shirts:
 - M: 1
 - L: 3
 - XL: 2
Knitted Konquis: 5
KDE India: 1 orange XL

There might be some sales (prosibily the last minute sales) which had not been 
written as the total ammount in the cash box was higher, so over the next few 
days I'll count how many are there remaining and send an email with the 
quantities.

The quantity on Sunday (including the contribution made by Adriaan) was 350€, 
so I'll transfer 650€.

A few comments about the t-shirt sales:
 - As Jonathan said, KDE-India t-shirts are very popular and it might be a 
good idea to make more. It was also suggested to make them in more colors.
 - Konqi t-shirts were more popular than the K-Logo ones, more people would 
have bought them should we had more L and XL units.

   We don't have claudia this year, does anyone know if there's a stock
   of t-shirts and if there's a way to get them to brussels for selling?
  
  We've got t-shirts covered now it seems.
  Can we get some of the little Konquis to sell?
 
 Jose can you get this arranged? Or is it a bit late now?
 
 Cheers,
   Albert

The remaining ones from Akademy were given to Timothée so thay could be sold 
at Akademy-fr, but I think that not all of them were sold.

Timothée: Are there some Konquis remaining? Are you going to attend FOSDEM?

I will contact Alicia to see if she can make some more (Specially some medium-
sized ones, as the only remaining ones from Akademy were small sized).
